we've just had ofsted in. report not official yet but we'll be getting a notice to improve.
without doubt one of the areas will be attendance. very rarely hit 95% :(
we've tried reward schemes; free breakfast club; fun days etc but still don't hit target. looks like we're heading towards actually fining families now.
any other ideas of what we could try? we've been tackling attendance for years now, (at least the four I've been a governor) and feels like we've run out of ideas between us.
